What is a Serigraph?
A Serigraph is the oldest form of printing and is very special and laborious. It uses a silkscreen type process and requires tremendous attention to detail and artistic vision.
Imagine a t-shirt design that is all one color. That design will use use one 'stencil' and one color of paint. When one wants 2 colors on a t-shirt, that takes the use of two ‘stencils’- one for each color.
Unlike some of the newer archival printing methods that can be done 'on demand' these days, an Edition of a Serigraph is done all at once, often entirely by the artist but frequently with the help of a Master Printer.
Upon completion, each piece is signed and numbered by the artist. The notation 1/100 means that this particular print is the first of 100 in an edition and that there will never be more than 100 original serigraph prints of that design.
